Rob,

The story says the Who's Who section is linked to the news...is it? How does that work, if it is?

Thanks!

All the news that you see on the main page that we link off to... If someone's name is mentioned in the headline, or first paragraph we pull off to build that, it'll be automatically linked from their Who's Who entry if they've got one.

Check https://www.broadwayworld.com/bios/viewstar.cfm?starid=121 Brian Stokes Mitchell for an example if you scroll waayyyyy down.

On a related note, if you upload pictures for someone in the fan photos section, it'll automatically display on there too.

Aaaaaand, it now does an autosearch for them on Amazon.com and displays their CDs too...

Whew - how many people have I confused other than myself?

A most impressive Press Release!


My perfect day would begin at on the beach in Hana, Maui and end at a Broadway Musical.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up...now, is there any way to delete those cds linked by amazon.com? Because while it's a good idea, sometimes amazon searches don't discriminate between people with similar names...and as a result some of the people with three names seem to be linked to a lot of cds that have nothing to do with them.

Congrats, Rob! You do good work! :) I'm still waiting on the clock for London, NYC and LA. Well, I think it would be nice.

The press release said a new volume of THE GLAMOROUS LIFE- is it the end of the one that stopped posting new episodes? When will it happen? Very cool!

And congrats on the fast success of the site!

Rob,

This is a wonderful new feature. But NBC is right about some CDs being incorrectly attributed to some of the actors and actresses listed. Maybe as fans we can make the corrections in the who's who ourselves.

Just an idea.

It's doing a direct search of Amazon (via Web services for any fellow geeks), so I can't edit what's coming up... I can turn it off though on any records where it's wonky, so if you notice any, shoot me a PM.
